Wilson went on to say that it will feature content from "multiple Star Wars eras" - he specifically mentioned The Force Awakens and Rogue One during the call, although he didn't actually confirm that the new game will feature either film's characters and locations.

Previously, EA revealed that Star Wars Battlefront 2 will feature "bigger and better worlds" than the last game.

"Next year we'll see Star Wars Battlefront back with bigger and better worlds, because we now have the new movies to work off [and] not just the historical movies that we used before," said EA Games CFO, Blake Jorgensen.

If the gameplay is focused on the "new movies", then we'd be very surprised if we didn't see Rey, Finn or Kylo Ren making an appearance at some point.
